Committed, thanks.
To use it yo'll need vsslight.vss for the vss files and vsswlt.dll for 
the wavelet ones.
BTW, vsswlt.dll will expire on May 20th 2003, according to the website.

Got the problem, the functions in third dll were not referenced by 
name. It works now.
To use it you'll need vssh264.dll, vssh264core.dll, vssh264dec.dll.
